Players that have purchased the “Commander” rank and have a full squad should have the highest priority.

Players that have a full 5 man party should be next in line for priority.

Players who are trying to get into WvWvW by themselves should have the lowest priority.

I posted my idea earlier, but it somehow got lost.

Players should be kept in line regardless as to if they are online or not. If the player is online when it is his turn to enter the game proceeds like it does now. If he is not online, his account should be flagged with something that indicates WvW priority. When he logs back in, he is placed in the front of the line (behind those with the flag that logged in prior). That way you could log off and still be in line, and the line wouldn’t be any longer than it is now because the same people are trying to get in.

I like your concept, but I fear players would just join groups to get into WvW faster. I could see commanders being let in quicker, but I don’t think it should require a full party. 100 gold is a lot just to get marked on the map (Squads don’t really do anything). It needs to have some perk.

Asurans dressed in orange should be first.

Then groups of 2 or 6.

Then everyone else.

Arbitrary rules are fun.

I think if it worked like Tol Barad in WoW where each side had to have an equal amount of players to queue would fix the problem. Meaning if 150 people where in EB per server(450 total), each server would have to have at least 1 in the queue for someone else to get in.

It would force people to evenly spread out throughout the servers eventually reducing queue times. The only other way I see queue times being reduced other than that is A) upgrading the server hardware to handle more clients per map which is unlikely, B ) adding additional maps to WvW for people to queue in, but won’t happen soon if it was the course Anet chose.

The best option would be to have players make their own games, but this would require a complete overhaul on WvW(Due to population issues). This would make it where anyone at anytime could be in a WvW match, and give guilds and alliances more lead way in controlling their own games. This would also have more of a GvG or AvA effect then the current mechanics of WvW. As it stands now, it would be really hard for most servers to find the people to fill the maps tho.

Hopefully that blog Colin talked about comes out soon, I’m curious as to what Anet plans on dealing with these issues. I think in the end, there is really no easy answers to the problems at hand in WvW including Queue issues.

nope.

No priority to anyone. Unless you buy my copy of GW2 you should not dictate how I play.
